The senior director of plant foods at MFA Incorporated, a Missouri-based farm cooperative, says fall fieldwork is underway.
Chris DeMoss tells Brownfield there’s been good demand for potash, potassium and anhydrous in Missouri and many farmers had booked fertilizer early to lock in better prices.
“Fertilizer values are relatively low compared to a year ago, especially when you’re looking at the value of the inputs versus the outputs. Corn prices are down, but they’re not down as much as fertilizer prices have come down.
